== Plot ==
In [[Bangalore]], [[#Karnataka Union Council of Ministers|Central Minister]] Ghanshyam Yadav is intercepted by some goons
Gagan meets up with his
▲Previously, Gagan had rescued Sakshi from goons in her office, so she had agreed to share the location. But when Gagan visits her, she refuses again since Namadev has told her that it was a set up by Gagan and Keshava to get the location. Gagan goes to Sakshi's office again, but learns that her father suffered from a [[heart attack|stroke]]. Gagan and Yadav manages to rescue her father just in time. Due to this, Sakshi changes her opinion about Gagan and agrees to give details about the phone number.
Gagan and Keshav
▲After various [[Paranormal|paranormal activities]] in the house, Keshav quarrels with Namadev. Gagan tries to break up the fight and consequently loses his sacred thread. He starts experiencing supernatural activities in the house later that night. The next day, Gagan finds some spectacles in a drawer and decides to wear them, and his behavior begins to change after he does. Gagan goes to [[interview]] Saroja Devi at a country club; and he notices his vision blurring. He wears the spectacles to regain focus, and he completely shifts his focus on the man in the pool. Gagan relentlessly beats up a lawyer named Prabhakar Reddy and fights off any security who try to hold him back, occasionally asking the man "Why did you kill me?" before Reddy escapes and Gagan loses consciousness.
'''Past''': Shruthi,
▲Gagan and Keshav go to Yadav's [[party|birthday bash]] where they get drunk. Yadav embraces him, and Gagan wears the spectacles to regain focus. He proceeds to beat up Yadav mercilessly in a similar fashion. Yadav survives and Gagan wakes up in prison, with no idea of what happened at the party. Gagan gets bail on the case of mental illness, and the media quickly picks up Gagan's story, focusing that he lives in a supposedly haunted house. An observer explains the suicide of his niece Shruthi, which occurred in that house. Sakshi then reveals that the location of the number Gagan seeks is the same house. Gagan is shocked and reveals the person to be Shruthi.
'''Present''': Gagan is
▲'''Past''': Shruthi was working under Reddy as a junior lawyer, who arrived in Kolkata and befriended Gagan after reading the article he wrote on the disabled. They both prepare articles to file a case against Yadav. Gagan proposed to her and asked her to call him after she reaches Bengaluru for her answer, but he hadn't received a call from her due to which he landed in Bangalore.
'''Flashback''': In the ashram, Gagan
▲'''Present''': Gagan is then taken to Guruji's [[ashram]] instead of a mental hospital, where a puja is being performed to get rid of the spirit that has invaded Gagan. Gagan wears the spectacles again, which is revealed to be the same spectacles that Shruthi wore. He violently kills Reddy, before moving to Yadav. Yadav holds Shruthi's uncle as a hostage before someone delivers a final blow. In the court, Guruji reveals that he has saw the violent nature of the spirit while the doctors divulges that he has multiple personality disorder. The court orders Gagan to be sent to a mental hospital.
'''Present''': Gagan is in a mental asylum van and sees Guruji in a car, who lookes at him without blinking his eyes. When Guruji leaves, Gagan smiles.
▲'''Flashback''': Gagan stabs Shruthi's uncle before violently killing Yadav. Gagan reveals to Guruji that he was never possessed by anyone. Gagan had a [[video chat]] with Shruthi after she had gone home, but he witnesses Yadav, Reddy and her uncle murdering her. Gagan said it was revenge in his mind, not any spirit. He explains that he will be proven both spiritually and [[scientifically]] innocent by the court of law and forces Guruji to lie in front of media.
